Summer, 1658, and the Republic may finally be safe: the combined Stuart and Spanish forces have been heavily defeated by the English and French armies on the coast of Flanders, and the King's cause appears finished.

Yet one final, desperate throw of the dice is planned. And who can stop them if not Captain Damian Seeker?

The fifth gripping outing for Seeker in this acclaimed and award-winning series of historical thrillers. Will his legacy endure?

Reviews for The House of Lamentations (#5 Seeker)

MacLean's light touch portrait of a hard man with a softer core is what makes these books so memorable * The Times * Excellent at conveying the insecurities and unsettling memories that bedevil Cromwell's dying Protectorate * Daily Mail * Complex and gripping ... this high-quality, deliciously moody series continues to deliver. I long for more * For Winter Nights * You won't find many period crime novels that match The Seeker series for insight and evocation of time and place * NB magazine *
